Ned And Ariel

Four months pregnant. I was alone when a rival family came for me.. A searing pain tore through my stomach. I couldn't reach my husband, Don Lorenzo. His phone was off. I woke up in a sterile hospital bed. Three days had passed. And the baby... was gone. That’s when I heard the nurses gossiping. “Heard Don Lorenzo cleared out a block of Fifth Avenue for his mistress three days ago. Had his phone off so they wouldn't be disturbed.” Tears rolled down my cheeks, but my heart was empty. I gave up my career, my whole life, for him. The Don who promised me forever… he shattered that promise just days before our fifth anniversary. Back home, I dug out an old phone and made a call. A number I hadn't touched in five years. "The European tour you mentioned…" I said, my voice hollow. "I'm in. I can be ready in a week."

He stole her songs. He broke her heart. He destroyed her life. Now she’s back not as the naïve girl he betrayed, but as the rising star the whole world craves. She swore she would never forgive. Never forget. But when the man who ruined her past becomes the only one who can control her future, revenge turns dangerous and desire turns fatal. He wants her talent. He wants her body. He wants her soul. She wants his downfall. Two hearts. One battlefield. And a love story toxic enough to burn them both alive.

On my birthday, Rowan Shore ditches me for the 99th time to run to his suicidal true love. I tell the system, "I'm done with this mission. I've had enough." For years, I have tried every trick in the book, but I can't win Rowan's heart. The system says that if I die in this world, I'll return to my original one. The first time, I slit my wrists in the bathroom. Rowan kicks the door down, sends me to the hospital, and berates me for using self-harm to snare his attention. The second time, I swallow an entire bottle of sleeping pills. He bursts in at the last moment and sobs while holding me. He says he knows he messed up. There's still a third time, a fourth time, and more, right?

Liora Nyssa Cortez gave everything... her time, her heart, her trust for the people she loved, but one lie destroyed it all. Branded a bully for something she didn't do, she was left humiliated, betrayed, and abandoned by the very friends she once called family. The most painful part was Thorne Lucien Silva, the boy she loved deeply, didn't speak. He didn't ask for the truth. He didn't stay. He walked away like she never mattered. Seven years later, Liora is no longer the fragile girl they broke. She is stronger, fiercer, and successful on her own terms. Just when she thought she had finally moved on, fate pulls them back into each other's lives. Thorne is now a famous idol. Liora is the girl he once ruined. And the past still lingers, waiting to be faced.

Para kay Ayen Ramirez, simple lang dapat ang buhay—trabaho bilang secretary sa isang malaking kompanya at isang matinong relasyon na inakala niyang pangmatagalan.
